I’m writing this to you in the light of recent global events, and by the time you read this, the situation may well have changed again. So I have decided to focus on showcasing our offering to you this month, brought to you with the passion and commitment we have for il bel paese. Despite current uncertainties over travel, here is our new issue brimming with inspiring features and stunning photography celebrating the country we all know and love.
To begin, we step off the tourist trail and head for the hills above the Amalfi Coast to explore the tiny town of Scala, which has all the charm of the coast but without the crowds. We pop over to Pisa, not for the Tower this time but for an intriguing tale about the origins of the Renaissance. Our cover stars, the Dolomites, are the setting for a heady mix of outdoor concerts and hiking to be found on their verdant slopes. Next stop Sicily, and the traditional Easter celebrations in Enna, and finally the extraordinary stories of trailblazing Milanese women in the arts, fashion, and more.
